Hey,
Shelton called with a plan: buy a quarter-acre lot, build a site-built home, and sell it. He wanted R1 zoning — a real neighborhood with paved roads already in and power at the street. Somewhere in Florida that end buyers already know and want to be.
I pulled three lots in Rainbow Lakes Estates in Dunnellon. He's reviewing them now. Sharing them with the whole list today because this build-and-flip strategy on owner-financed land is one most people haven't considered — and it starts with $299 down and no credit check.
Rainbow Lakes Estates, Dunnellon — quiet, private, and ready to build on. $299 down, 0% interest.
If you want to build your home in a real community —
Your Florida Dream Starts Here, Dunnellon — 0.23 acres in Rainbow Lakes Estates, high and dry with paved roads throughout and power at the street; R1 Residential zoning means site-built homes only, which protects the neighborhood comps when it's time to sell. The Rainbow River is minutes away. $299 down, $301/mo.
Rainbow Lakes Estates, Dunnellon — paved road, high and dry, 0.23 acres. $299 down to own.
Escape the Rent Trap, Dunnellon — 0.24 acres in the same neighborhood — same paved access, same R1 zoning, same $299 down — with slightly more buildable square footage at an identical monthly payment. $299 down, $301/mo.
Private Tropical Oasis, Dunnellon — a true quarter acre (0.25 acres) in Rainbow Lakes Estates; private setting, paved road, R1 Residential zoning, and the extra square footage that lets you build a larger home and list it at a higher price point. $299 down, $329/mo.
All three are in the same neighborhood, so you can compare them side by side against the same comps, the same road access, and the same resale market.
